CHAPTER 27

I re-publish this chapter bcs there was a problem on my last update. Sorry and I'll update the next chap tomorrow. Just keep on voting :)

TOBY'S POV

"What happen?" "What did you do?" "Why'd she cry?" "Did you do something wrong?" Everybody asked after Ella had walked out infront of me but I just stood there frozen and didn't said any word.

I was gazed out of my thought after I got slapped by her. I didn't know what was the reason and I have no total idea. Why did she cry? Got mad? Slap me on my face? Suddenly leave me? Why?

I don't want to lose her again but my body's getting numb like I can't really move but just stood there.

"Dude!" Riley snapped my thoughts back to reality

"I-I do-n't kno-ow" I stutter

"Go find her!" Connor exclaimed and I rushly ran out the backstage. I searched every room in our venue and didn't find her. I ran to our tour bus and still didn't find her. I ran everywhere and still I didn't find my Ella.

ELLA'S POV

I hate him, I really hate him. I cried

I'm sitting in a bench at a park here in Tampa after I walked out infront of Toby. Tears never stopped from streaming down my cheeks. After someone send me that video of Toby and Liz lip locked, I don't know if I could ever trust him again. How dare he said all of those words infront of thousands of people.

I don't know if I should keep on loving him. I don't know if I should trust him again. I don't know what to do anymore.

I kept on crying and crying and the video kept on replaying inside my head. I put my feet up together and layed my head on my knees.

"Uhm. Miss?" Someone tapped my shoulder and I looked up to the person.

"Oh. Ella. What happen?" Nathan sat beside me. I didn't respond but I put back my head on top of my knees.

"You can tell me"

I looked up to him with my watery eyes and I just hugged him. I really really need a friend right now.

"Okay calm down. You can tell me everything after you've stop crying, Okay?" then I nodd

~~~
THE NEXT MORNING

I woke up with a really bad headache. Wait, where am I? This is totally not my room.

"Oh. Good Morning" Nathan entered the door. "Nathan?" I look at him confused.

"Wait. Let me guess, you don't remember anything last night? Don't you?" he asked as my eyes got widen. "You mean-

"No no! I didn't even slept with you last night" I sigh in relief. "I don't remember anything. I just woke up with this terrible headache"

"Because you were crying the whole night" he answered and I gave him an odd look since I really don't remember anything.

"Last night, I saw you at the park sitting on a bench with your knees up and your head over it. You we're crying, like really crying and I asked you what happen but you weren't able to speak up. You cried and cried until you fell asleep."

"And where am I?" I asked

"This is my aunt's house, here in Tampa. I brought you here since it's very near to the park where I caught you crying last night"

"Wait" I spoke as my eyes started to water again. "I remember everything"

"You do?" he asked and I felt a tear fell down from my eyes. Nathan suddenly grab his hanky and wiped them off.

"You can tell me" he said and I didn't hesitate to tell him the whole story, of how Toby played with my feelings. I manage to show Nathan the video but I didn't look at it because I know it will hurt me a million times again.

"Oh" Nathan gasped after he watched the video and I just nodd. Suddenly tears broke down again. I can't help it. I love Toby.

"Calm down. Please? He's not worth your tears. Okay?"

"But-

"C'mon get up. Let's grab some breakfast downstairs" he grab my hand and I went for a big sigh.

Just forget about it Ella. Forget everything.

TOBY'S POV

Where is she? Where did she go? Whole night of looking for her and still I have no idea. My body started to get weak so I decided to head to our tour bus to get some rest eventhough I don't want to.

I didn't gave up but my body did.

I checked the clock and it's 6 in the morning. I closed my eyes trying to get back to sleep but I can't. All I can think about is Ella.

I got out of my bunk as quietly as I can so I won't disturb anyone. I wore some sweatshirt and slippers and head out the bus. Where should I go? Starbucks? Nah, not in a mood for coffee. Weird.

I made my way to a park. I found an empty bench and just sat down on it. No one's around since it's kinda early. Only a few people jogging around.

"Hey" someone sat beside me, I looked at my left and saw Liz. "What do you want now?" I looked away

"The question is, why are you here all alone?"

"Why do you care?"

"Oh! Did Ella left you?" she starts to play with my hair but I pulled her hand off.

"You're too possessive with that girl. Good thing I didn't hesitate to send that video" she chuckled and I looked at her confused. "What?"

"I said I didn't hesitate-

"I heard you! I mean what video are you talking about?"

"Ya knooow. The one at my hotel room... Where we kissed" she said with a smirk

"What the hell?!" I stood in anger. "She's not the girl for you!" she exclaimed

"And what? You are?! What are you thinking? Having that video will make me become yours?! Huh? I thought of you different before. You just became one slutty girl who wants to get what she wants!" I stormed out "And I would not or never had kiss you back if Ella wasn't inside my mind" I walked out with anger all over my face.

I went directly to our tour bus. I stepped inside and I already heard noises. They all might be awake now. I head to the back part of the bus and saw my brothers, Thomas, Ryan, Reychel, plus Nathan. Wait, Nathan? I stood infront them and they all gave me death glares and same worried looks. "What?" I asked

"What?" Someone repeated behind me. I looked back and saw Ella. I ran to her and gave her a tight hug but she suddenly push me. "Ella"

"Don't you Ella me!" she started to cry. "Please let me explain. Please" I begged "No need for explanations" she just grab Nathan's arm and said "Let's go"

They walked out the bus and I followed them. "Please Ella, please. Just let me explain" she stopped

"I'll let you explain, if ever I can face you again" she said even without turning around to face me and they suddenly just walk away but I just stood there with tears streaming down my eyes.
